Dolphin Watching and Cave Tour from Vilamoura

US$ 40.58

Overview

Cruise through the Algarve’s mesmerizing caverns and enjoy sea life on this small-group 2-hour dolphin watching and cave tour from Vilamoura Marina. By boat, enjoy a chance to see graceful dolphins skim the crystal clear waters of the Algarve. After an expedition to see these beautiful mammals continue to the craggy coastal bluffs and enter otherworldly caves that will blow you away. The number of travelers are limited on this tour to ensure a more intimate experience.

Departing from Vilamoura Marina daily, this tour lasts for almost 2 hours and includes dolphin watching and cave sights. Bottlenose dolphins and common dolphins are the two species that are most viewed on the coast. They are the most intelligent, friendly and playful creatures, with a delightful personality. Our tour is eco-friendly, meaning that we aim to protect these beautiful species and their natural environment for future generations. The specialized boat gets you as close as possible to see these amazing creatures. This tour is great for families and people of all ages, and returns back to the original departure point.
